Abstract :
In this paper, we have introduced a weighted model of the Quasi Lindley Distribution (QLD) as a new generalization of QLD. Statistical properties of this new distribution are derived and the model parameters are estimated by Maximum Likelihood (ML) estimation technique. Finally, the model is examined with an application to real life data.
